It's been a slow month.  I have, however, greatly enjoyed it.  I have to go back to work in about three weeks, so I am enjoying my time impersonating a sloth right now.  I have been productive in one area.  Our driver and race team (dirt track stock cars, 'member?) have finally decided to aggressively pursue sponsorship.  There's always been a lot of hesitation in the past.  They weren't comfortable asking for money (or product) for whatever reason.  Well, with the new year that changed.  And since I can write, type, research, and know what a resume looks like, guess who's in charge?  We put together a pretty decent resume and potential sponsorship package and every other day or so, I get a text message asking me to send it to someone else.  Now we're just waiting for responses.  I also have gotten pretty good at mocking up sponsor logos on the car.  I'm particularly proud of myself since I do it without the power of Photoshop.  I have Photoshop.  It's just sitting in an unopened box under my desk since I don't have a computer with enough guts to run it.  I use a combination of Word, Paint, and Photoscape.  Photoscape is a free editing program available on the interwebs.  It's good too. 

Until next time
